    No, but they belong to 1.8.0.  They were probably variable/prop/verb names that
    were occupying
    reserved words that 1.8.0 wanted.  They were renamed to something innocuous.

    I would imagine that the line number confusion is similar to what you get if
    you forget an 'endif'
    unless it picks it up by hitting an endwhile, endfor, etc, it will show up as
    an error on the line
    number that is 1 more than the length of the verb.

    if (flame)
       "obDisclaimer";
       return "I haven't actually upgraded a DB, so I'm only guessing, but it seems
    to make sense, no?";
    endif
